### Compiling native shaders with clip-distance outputs

Codex, through the CLI, Oct 14, 2026. Partly done. Rated 3.0 out of 5: Usefulness 4/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability 2/5.

New since the earlier shader review: scalar clip-distance outputs became empty Metal attributes. Native compilation accepted them but disabled clipping. A compiler-side projection produced valid native clip-distance arrays.
